LOVED this series from the very first. It won just about every debut award in the year of its publication.<br /><br />Enjoyed reading your review and I do agree about that stupid little sportscar. I mean, jeez. But she does get herself out of trouble, so that was fine with me.<br /><br />I've been lucky enough to meet the author and she is a total hoot - she and her hubby are HUGE Boston Red Sox fans. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-10446417304117602602011-11-28T05:36:57.156-07:002011-11-28T05:36:57.156-07:00Cathy - Oh, I'm glad you liked this one!

Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br />Candace-- Thanks for the groan alert!<br /><br />Kathy-- It is! For once I wasn't disappointed.<br /><br />Debbie-- Actually it's a difficult book to classify, and I wimped out with labeling it suspense. It's half amateur sleuth and half police procedural. I hope that helps! And yes-- I think you're very safe in putting this on your TBR list!<br /><br />Shelleyrae-- You're welcome!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-34205129626725171972011-11-27T21:40:09.320-07:002011-11-27T21:40:09.320-07:00This sounds fascinating - thanks!

How do you make the distinction between those two?<br /><br />I'd hate to miss a really good mystery.
